Neutrino Oscillations and New Physics

نویسنده

J. W. F. Valle

چکیده

I discuss the theoretical background and the status of neutrino oscillation parameters from the current worlds’ global data sample and latest flux calculations. I give their allowed ranges, best fit values and discuss the small parameters α ≡ ∆m2sol/∆m 2 atm and sin 2 θ13, which characterize CP violation in neutrino oscillations. I mention the significance of ββ0ν (neutrinoless double beta decay) and current expectations in view of oscillation results.

Neutrino Oscillations and the Solar Neutrino Problem

I describe the current status of the solar neutrino problem, summarizing the arguments that its resolution will require new particle physics. The phenomenon of matter-enhanced neutrino oscillations is reviewed. I consider the implications of current experiments – including the SuperKamiokande atmospheric neutrino and LSND measurements – and the need for additional constraints from SNO and other...

CP violation in neutrino oscillations and new physics

We consider future experiments to detect CP violation in neutrino oscillations and discuss how to test that all asymmetries are indeed described in terms of the single leptonic Jarlskog invariant as predicted in the absence of new physics effects. e-mail address: [email protected] e-mail address: [email protected]

Developments in Neutrino Physics

Measurements of various features of the fluxes of atmospheric and solar neutrinos have provided evidence for neutrino oscillations and therefore for neutrino masses and mixing. We review the phenomenology of neutrino oscillations in vacuum and in matter. We present the existing evidence from solar and atmospheric neutrinos as well as the results from laboratory searches, including the final sta...

MaVaNs and Solar Physics: A Preliminary Study

A simple quantum mechanical model of neutrino oscillations fits all experimental data thus far, but the data is sparse enough to allow for many other possibilities. The mass-varying neutrino (MaVaN) model adds one heavy sterile neutrino with a mass proportional to a power of the electron number density. We study oscillations between two active neutrinos after integrating out the sterile neutrin...
